Lao Gong kept whispering in my ear endlessly.
Not only did he curse Wu Ling, but he also vented his anger on Mao You San.
It means, a great master like him, how could he accept such an apprentice, who dares to violate his master's plan, and is disobedient and immoral? How could he not see it?
Or is he aware of it and deliberately allowing such behavior?
It's that after exploiting me, he expelled me from the Si Gui Mountain, thus making way for Wu Ling to enter?
If it's the former, then he hasn't noticed it, which means he's a waste of Yin-Yang magic.
If it's the latter, then it means Mao You San is the worst person, taking both sides.
Allowing Wu Ling to go unchecked, if Wu Ling succeeds, he can still manipulate him in his hands. And since he's said so many good things about me in advance, I'm sure I will still believe in him.
The more Lao Gong spoke, the more I felt scared and nervous.
If that's the case, can Wu Ling stay quietly on the Si Gui Mountain?
External evil, who is the true external evil?
The sense of belonging to Si Gui Mountain is gradually growing.
If Si Gui Mountain is destroyed in Wu Ling's hands, or even secretly stained by Mao You San, this is an absolute result that I cannot accept!
Especially the safety of He You Tian!
At the last moment, He You Tian wanted to protect me, which caused Wu Ling to feel scared.
That underhanded person who took away the foundation, whether he is under Mao You San's control or not, must never let him live.
Otherwise, he will inevitably harm He You Tian!
"Big Brother, I can do real people, and he is still in his prime, living for another thirty or forty years is not a problem. I don't necessarily have to be the candidate for Si Gui Mountain. Many years later, Si Gui Mountain will hold another succession ceremony to select a disciple without problems."
"But that person absolutely cannot be Wu Ling!"
"In itself, I need to leave Si Gui Mountain to do many things. This departure makes things clean and tidy without dragging Si Gui Mountain into trouble. I will not become an enemy to other temples. However, Wu Ling was one of the people who helped push his master's death. He cannot stay in Si Gui Mountain!"
"Lao Gong, kill him!"
"Besides Sun Zhuo and his son Sun Dahai, I have never wanted to kill anyone as much as I do now!"
"Killing him is a must, but it's not easy to kill..." Lao Gong muttered.
I didn't respond, fully concentrating on climbing down.
The mountain is too high.
It's almost dawn.
Lao Gong disappears.
My limbs were weak, but I finally reached the bottom of the cliff.
My breathing was labored, and my lungs hurt slightly.
The Taoist robe on me was still damp.
The red is too eye-catching.
The dawn sun shines on the cliff, and the rain from last night causes the vines to reflect light continuously.
Before, in order to retrieve the copper pestle and the magical artifact, I had descended the Thunder God Cliff.
The dense jungle is still the same, green and juicy, full of vitality.
My phone buzzed, and I couldn't believe there was a signal in this place?
I took it out to see and it was a call from Mao You San.
I remained silent, didn't answer.
The Wu Zhongkan that Lao Gong devoured is also a great master. He ate an extra Yin-Yang master's soul to make up for his own shortcomings.
The words he said must have a certain amount of truth in them.
Mao You San is too mysterious.
Even if Wu Ling's actions were unrelated to him and were his own initiative, does this act of letting go have anything to do with it?
Moreover, now that I'm leaving Si Gui Mountain in such a way, without a proper title and legitimacy, and causing such a disturbance in Si Gui Mountain, what value do I still have to Mao You San?
Even, even Sun Zhuo's corpse, I cannot bring to him.
He's a businessman. Will he immediately switch sides and stand with Wu Ling?
That's a gamble I can't take.
Everything from last night tells me that I can always trust only those closest to me, and those who have been verified through a series of tests!
He You Tian is.
I hung up the phone myself, indicating my stance.
The phone didn't ring again.
I plunged headlong into the jungle, and for a moment, I didn't know which way to go.
I don't want to just leave like this, but I'm not sure which direction to approach the town of Si Gui from.
Moreover, I'm not sure whether Wu Ling will stay on the mountain or return to Si Gui Town.
I can only try to get as far away from the Thunder God Cliff as possible.
At noon, Lao Gong appeared once.
He and I talked a few words briefly.
The meaning is that Wu Ling's matter won't be solved so quickly. Other temples want to show their anger, but they dare not, because I ran away, not Si Gui Mountain's problem, but only the long elder's individual behavior.
And with the long elder being killed again, this matter has been accounted for to the other temples, but there is no explanation for Si Gui Mountain. He You Tian will not give up easily.
Now we have two choices.
The first choice is to hide in Si Gui Town and wait for Wu Ling to appear. He has some confidence in hiding me and waiting for the right moment to kill him before we leave again.
However, the probability is very low. If Wu Ling were to die now and Si Gui Mountain found out it was me who killed him, it would be a double blow to He You Tian.
Because, Wu Ling dares to stand up and say he is a white bloodline of Si Gui Mountain, he must be telling the truth.
The second choice is that Wu Ling will definitely study Daoism on Si Gui Mountain. With some knowledge of Yin-Yang magic, he will surely quickly shine. Everything I should have done, he will do it instead.
For example, dealing with Jin Yang's epidemic ghosts, or dealing with the Tian Shou Taoist Temple on Xian Dong Mountain. He might even cooperate with Mao You San to achieve his goals as soon as possible.
We can use a sword to kill people!
The probability is high that Wu Ling will go to Jin Yang first, so we will go there as well and test things out again. Let's find some old acquaintances.
The midday was too short. After Lao Gong said these things, he only had time to point me in a direction and tell me to go that way.
I have never stopped since then.
When thirsty, I would find water from streams in the woods. When hungry, I would pick some wild fruits.
I saw a lot of wild rabbits, wild chickens, even snakes, but I had no heart to hunt and roast them.
Finally, when I was walking near that forest, twilight was approaching.
I could see the road and even the nearby Si Gui Town in the distance!
Not only that... I also saw that there were Taoists on duty at the hidden positions near the town gate.
Two days and one night are enough for the mountain to respond and send out a large number of Taoists to guard the surroundings.
I think Lao Gong's first plan is probably not going to work.
Wu Ling is a fortune teller; how could he not see through such a simple assassination plot?
He is so cautious, and he took away my foundation, how could he let me kill him so easily again?
My phone rang again, this time from Si Yan.
My emotions were turbulent, my heart filled with complexity and remorse.
I don't know how to answer.
I don't know how to face Si Yan.
The first call ended, and soon, it rang a second time.
It took me a lot of courage to answer.
Si Yan's voice was filled with tension and anxiety: "You finally answered the phone... They said you jumped off a cliff... Luo Xianshen, is that you?"
I was taken aback.
Jumping off a cliff?
Why would they say that?
"It's hard for me to walk away alone and get in touch with you. Remember, don't go back to Si Gui Mountain. My master has died, the elder is very upset, and the other elders believe that the elder may not be able to take on the position of a real immortal. They demand that the elder must find you back before he can become a real immortal. The elder will definitely not agree."
"The second elder will temporarily take on the position of a real immortal because the anger of various temples towards you is very strong. He has to let those temples vent their anger."
"You must not let my master's efforts for your life go to waste, and by the way, Wu Ling has something wrong with him! Jiang Kuang died... His soul is gone, and I cannot summon his soul either. Even a restless soul can be summoned. That can only mean one thing: Jiang Kuang's soul has been eaten!"
"You have to be careful of Mao You San; this matter is very serious! But my denunciation is useless, no one will believe me. The Bai family of Si Gui Mountain has once made great contributions, but there are few people left. At least another bloodline has been discovered, and the other elders all cherish Wu Ling, even several of them want to take him as a disciple."
"In the short term, the farther away from Si Gui Mountain you are, the better. Surviving is not only a duty to my master, but also to the elder. Do you understand, Luo Xianshen!"
Si Yan spoke too quickly, and this speech made me even more surprised and shaken.
